This line of brushes are carried at Sally Beauty Supply. They are quite affordable. It is made with natural(goat I believe) hair. The brush feels good in your hand and is easy to use. I have been pleased with all my other Face Secrets brushes, up until this one. At first the bristles felt quite soft. After time though, they have begun to feel a bit rough. None of my other brushes have had that issue. When I first washed it some of the black color came out, but after that first wash it was fine. It has held it's shape through many washings. It sheds. A lot. I have had this brush for quite some time, and the shedding still hasn't stopped. I do not recommend this brush, and I am currently looking to replace it.
